Using

    lilypond -dshow-available-fonts x

was suggested as a way to look at the fonts Lilypond has available. Doing this from the command line on my Mac (10.4.11 FWIW), I got:

[tim ~]$ lilypond -dshow-available-fonts x
GNU LilyPond 2.12.3
ERROR: In procedure primitive-load-path:
ERROR: Unable to find file "ice-9/boot-9.scm" in load path

I remember this error, but not the reason...
On my current 10.5.8 the command works flawlessly (even if slow, because it must scan several trees).

And is Lilypond also not locating anything else in /Applications/ LilyPond.app/Contents/Resources/share/guile/* ?

LilyPond uses fontconfig; you can setup your font directories in ~/.fonts.conf; mine looks this:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<!DOCTYPE fontconfig SYSTEM "fonts.dtd">
<fontconfig>
<cache>~/.fonts.cache-1</cache>

<dir>/System/Library/Fonts</dir>
<dir>/Library/Fonts</dir>
<dir>~/Library/Fonts</dir>
<dir>~/FontExplorer\ X/Font\ Library</dir>
<dir>/Library/Application\ Support/Adobe/Fonts</dir>
<dir>~/Library/texmf/tex</dir>
</fontconfig>
